  • Episode 103: What to Do in Quiet Times
    Jul 29 2025

    Is your diary looking a little empty? You’re not alone. In this episode, Jackie and David talk about how to handle those quieter patches in your massage business—without spiralling into panic or bingeing cat reels (well… maybe a few).

    We chat about low-cost, practical ideas to reengage past clients, using your time wisely, and staying visible even when bookings slow down. From simple marketing tweaks to making admin time work for you, this episode is full of honest advice, encouragement, and a few laughs.

    It’s a gentle nudge to stay steady and keep showing up—because quiet times don’t last forever.

  • Episode 102: Living Fearlessly - Mel Woodward on Risk, Resilience, and Regional Life
    Jul 8 2025

    In this episode, Jackie and David chat with Melissa Woodward, from Fearless Health in Dubbo, regional New South Wales. You're going to want to grab your notebook and pencil for this one because Mel's story is one of heart, grit, and just getting on with it.

    From flipping burgers as a quiet teenager, working with footy players, cutting her teeth in allied health to starting a practice, growing it, working with her husband, closing the business due to COVID, reopening, relocating 5 hours away, getting started again and growing one more (phew!)

    Mel reflects emotionally on what it is like to make tough decisions, and the steps and mindset that it takes to be visible in a small town, and why being fearless doesn’t mean being unafraid.

    If you’ve ever juggled motherhood, business, and big decisions, this chat will speak right to you.
